I’ll Be the Male Leads Sister-in-Law

Marry Another (1)

Mrs. Li was also taken aback when she overheard the conversation between Xie Xuanchen and Mu Mingtang, but then she quickly fixed her expressions and walked over with a smile.

She acted as if she hadn’t heard Xie Xuanchen’s words and praised him, “I just got the maid’s message and realised that it was Prince An, who did that marvellous Lianhua Xiao back then. This humble one has admired the hero for a long time, and I have never thought that I would meet that famous warrior today. My Lord, I wonder if you’ll humour me and everyone present, and give us the honour to witness that breathtaking spectacle today.”

The men who came with Mrs. Li were also eagerly looking forward to seeing him in action, but Xie Xuanchen’s reply to Mrs. Li’s request broke everyone’s hearts.

“No.” He said indifferently.

Everyone was stunned for a while, including Mu Mingtang. She stared at Xie Xuanchen with admiration and asked in a soft voice: “Can’t you? Actually, I also want to see it.”

When Xie Xuanchen heard Mu Mingtang’s words, he glanced back at her and immediately changed his previous decision. “Okay.”

Mrs. Li had been interacting with people for a long time, but this was the first time she truly understood what it meant to be speechless.

Fortunately, she immediately controlled her expression and waved to the maid with a smile on her face: “Haven’t you all heard what Prince An said just now? He’ll be taking part in the Throwing The Pot game with other gentlemen here. Hurry and arrange things.”

The maid took the order and left. Seeing the commotion on this side, more and more people were alarmed, and finally, everyone gathered around Xie Xuanchen and Mu Mingtang’s assigned area.

Soon several maids brought the multi-eared pot and the arrows. Mrs. Li looked at Xie Xuanchen and asked cautiously, “My lord, where do you think it is convenient to put the pot?”

(T/N: You can check the image of a two-eared pot HERE.)

Xie Xuanchen said, “Just place it wherever you want. Anyway, it makes no difference.”

In order to remind Xie Xuanchen that he shouldn’t be so arrogant, Mu Mingtang softly elbowed him with an annoyed look. ‘You…’

Mrs. Li was unaware of their slight movements as she was thinking about where to place the pot. She pondered for a moment and finally put the multi-eared pot on the open space outside Xie Xuanchen’s table so that he could play freely and Mu Mingtang could also see the game without needing to move somewhere else.

Xie Xuanchen didn’t express any opinion and stretched out his hand to the side. The maid understood his intention and immediately presented the arrow quiver. However, Xie Xuanchen didn’t take the whole thing. He only took one arrow from the set and directly threw it outside the pavilion.

Mrs. Li, Mu Mingtang, and the bystanders were all in awe. ‘What is Prince As doing? How can he play this game by sitting here and just throwing the arrow so casually? At least stand up and look at the lot, okay?’

Everybody who was present at the moment had the same thought going through their mind.

In the end, Xie Xuanchen didn’t even change his sitting position, let alone move around.

Originally, Mrs. Li told her maids to place the pot outside Xie Xuanchen’s pavilion, because she was afraid that the indoor space would be too small to use it, so it would be better to play the game outside. However, she didn’t expect that Xie Xuanchen would throw the arrows at the multi-eared pot outside through the half-slung bamboo curtain without even standing.

Mu Mingtang couldn’t utter a single word as she helplessly watched how Xie Xuanchen was engaging in the game.

The arrow thrown by Xie Xuanchen entered the pot and then bounced out of it, perfectly hanging on the mouth of the pot.

He kept throwing arrows casually, one after another. All of them successfully hung on the pot at equal intervals.

After Xie Xuanchen threw the last one, the arrow flew precisely into the pot, bounced off the side of the inner wall, and jumped out at a dangerous angle, just hanging on the mouth, without touching the surrounding arrows.

At this moment, all the arrows were neatly hanging on the mouth of the pot, like a lotus flower in full bloom.

After the last movement, Xie Xuanchen looked at Mu Mingtang indifferently and said casually, “It’s done.”

Mu Mingtang did not even get the chance to blink, and everything had already happened so swiftly.

“Could it be that this is actually quite simple?”

She questioned curiously as she observed the pitching pot outside.
